Those were rough days. I started with Dapper Drake but there was no way to actually get my trackpad drivers until 8.04. Kudos for sticking with linux

I was hooked. It was the first time my PC felt as transparent and lie-free as notebook paper.

Like, there's nothing to hide because nothing is. It's pure, truthful freedom and that meant more to me than raw usability. I tried to do everything possible on Linux that i was told I couldn't do, hell, I ran Team Fortress 2 and Half Life in wine way pre-proton.

and it sucked, but it was cool tho!
